Our journey begins with a scenic drive through the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, where you’ll pass through ancient cork oak forests and rugged mountain landscapes. Our first stop is Grazalema, a charming village known for its picturesque whitewashed houses and fascinating history. On a 1.5km guided walk, you’ll explore its historic monuments, uncovering stories of its textile industry and wartime past.
